OOOoppss!
Earthrace sunk by jap whaler!!!

This reminds me of the tune that gets played by bob barker in the price is right when you loose a game. duhduh…duh!

No matter how delusional you people get by thinking that “the japs will have to contend with a serious piece of hardware now.! There will always be reality waiting to run you over.

[...] As if the costs weren’t heavy enough, the project then shot $500,000 over budget — mainly due to the complexity of the carbon spars and the more than 66 layers of carbon fibre. And this is all before Sea Shepherd got their hands on the vessel and added an additional 4-8 layers of kevlar and other upgrades. [...]

Good Luck! I hope your fleet grows to the hundreds with plenty of caring, knowledgable crews to man them. Save the whales (and other sea animals)!

I agree with Jay’me Golden. The Earthrace should have been kept a secret, and no information pertaining to her structure should be discussed. This just gives the Japanese time to create ways to deal with Earthrace. The element of suprise would have been great, and could have set the Japanese back just enough to save a few more whales!

As an interceptor vessel the Earthrace crew have been thinking long and hard about possible tactics to really bankrupt the whaling fleet and cripple it’s profitability.Some may seem extreme and dangerous when portrayed on WW’s but the crew are completely committed to stopping whaling and the japanese have something a lot more serious chasing them now. ER crew are battle hardened warriors having fought off pirates and beaten the world circumnavigation record. (They are also slightly crazy and a lot of fun so the series will be awesome viewing) Even if these guerilla tactics dont come off just the sight of the Earthrace boat will make the whale wars series an unmissable environmental crusade and an inspiration to individual action and an elevation of what we have to do to save the planet.

Fight the good fight. Kia Kaha, Kia Toa.

In a way I wish that nothing had been said about the Earthrace…what a surprize it would of been to the japanese when it showed up on the scene…now they will have time to think of ways to out do the Sea Shepard… I am excited though and am hoping that it will make a difference…
